So I have a 65 Gal Red Sea Max as my display which had 2 clowns and a flame angel in it for the past month. the clowns were fighting so much that I had to pull the bigger one and put it in the QT (Not really a QT, just an observation tank).
In the meantime I've had a Blue tang and yellow mimic tang in the 29 gallon QT for the past month. I just acclimated both the blue tang and mimic tang to the Red Sea, put them in and left the house for 2 hours.
When I can home I saw that the mimic tang looks beat up a little. I can see his fins are pretty ripped up. I see the Flame Angel chasing him a little so my first instinct is to pull the flame and let the mimic get used to the tank, set up a territory and try re-intorducing the flame later. If that doesnt work I'd get rid of the flame.
Should I pull the flame ASAP, or let them work it out? Also, will the fins grow back on the mimic. He was absolutely gorgeous and now looks so....blah. I feel so bad for him.
Please respond ASAP and PM me with any ideas.
Thanks!
